One of my favourite snacks to make is deviled eggs. I didn’t grow up eating deviled eggs (in fact, the first deviled egg I had was at the ripe old age of 20), but something about their cool creaminess makes them one of my favourite comfort foods.

I love how deviled eggs can be dressed up or down – they’re pretty much a blank slate for flavours. These deviled eggs are slightly Japanese due to the tobiko: those tiny, crunchy bright orangey-red fish eggs you usually see on sushi rolls. The eggs add a a fantastic texture and saltiness. Fast, easy and hand-held: the holy trifecta of snack foods, in my books.

i am egg-filled, i am egg-topped: i am triple deviled egg!

Triple Deviled Egg Recipeyield: 8 deviled egg halves

4 hard boiled eggs, peeled, chilled and cut in half

2 tablespoons Japanese mayonnaise

1 tablespoon tobiko (small fish eggs)

salt and pepper to taste

sriracha (optional)

1 tablespoon ikura (big fish eggs)

seaweed strips for garnish

Remove the yolks from the egg halves into a small bowl. Mash the yolks with a fork until fine and crumbly. Mix with the mayonnaise and tobiko. Taste and season with salt, pepper and sriracha (if using). Fill the egg halves with the yolk mixture and top each egg half with some ikura and seaweed strips. Enjoy immediately.

I want to try to make deviled eggs soon. I’ve never made them (I used to despire hard-boiled eggs, but have come around). I like your sushi-inspired take. That’s pretty original. I haven’t decided what kind of flavors I want in mine. Maybe something smoky.

This is my first visit to your blog (drawn in by the spinach & potato coddled eggs) and I just love the blog design. There are SO MANY foodie blogs and pretty much never comment but on this one I felt that I had to.

Question –
Can you suggest a suitable roe substitute for someone who’s unable to eat it? No idea if sesame seeds would do the trick (doubt it). Or perhaps there is a seaweed that comes in tiny pearled pieces? (I know it’s a long shot, just thought I’d ask)

If roe isn’t your thing, there are tonnes of other substitutes you can put into your deviled eggs. I like little bits of bacon and chopped up kimchi! I’m not too sure of any other spherical food stuffs though…

As someone going off on my own for the first time and previously raised on the versatile diet of McDonalds and Taco Bell, I’m so excited to know about this blog! I’ve been trying to learn how to make really good food for a while now and all of my mentors are proficient only at the microwave. This is one of the few “real” foods I ate growing up so I’m excited to try your take on it. The ikura looks especially good–I would have never thought to try that. Thanks for putting the site together! My eyes are really digging the aesthetics and I’m sure my stomach will appreciate the recipes.
